PRE GAME CR MEME!
Establishing CR that already exists before the game starts is super important and also super fun so LETS DO IT
here is how to CR meme

If you come up with something really good in this meme, or just in general discussion with other players, that contradicts an element of the backstory you wrote in your app, that's totally fine. Just let the mods know if the difference is a really big one that changes things significantly.
PLEASE NOTE: you can only use this meme once you've been accepted! This is because we don't want people to get invested in connections based on information that may not make it through the app process! Thanks!

Compound AI from space seeking to make a good impression of their people so when the main fleet arrives in a few centuries, humanity won't shoot them out of the sky.
YOU MAY HAVE HEARD OF THIS CHARACTER IF: You follow superhero news. Legion's been making some waves, being a fairly competent A-level superhero occasionally involved in major CONDOR operations. If you follow tech circles, they're a much bigger deal, as a rare example of functioning distributed intelligence.
YOU MAY KNOW THIS CHARACTER IF: You are a superhero or CONDOR operative who has been involved in high-level crime, the kind of stuff where enemy death is deemed to be a tragic but not particularly surprising event. Drug cartels, private security firms gone rogue, the occasional TRIDENT operation - Legion keeps away from lower-level stuff. CONDOR's afraid they're going to start killing a little bit too easily.
PLANS & IDEAS FOR THIS CHARACTER: Legion is here mostly to learn about organic life, so the kinds of people who are willing to teach them things are great, but what's also great are the kinds of people who try and fail to teach them things, thus resulting in Legion utterly failing to understand organic life in any way, shape, or form.
THINGS YOU'D PREFER TO AVOID: Nothing comes to mind.
ANYTHING ELSE: nothing much

no come back we're trying to understand organics.

Goal: learn about human ambassadorship with a non-human
Result: many things broken

so Baelheit used to work for TRIDENT and works in cybernetics research and would totally love to study a being like Legion for his research. what say you to some CR action
no subject
why is your entourage heavily armed.
no subject
plus there's that whole issue of his crime-filled experimented-on-orphans past.
no subject
legion would probably still categorically refuse to be experimented on, but i guess they could have a thing like
"let us experiment"
"no"
"please?"
"no"
"i'll pay you"
"we have no need of organic currency"
and eventually the conversation turns to AI development
no subject
the two of them talking about AI development though, goodness. that would be an interesting conversation.

im so late im so sorryglados is probably absolutely up to date with all the public (and maybe some not so public) info available on legion; she might even have tried to contact them directly as her current internet alter ego?
but also
i decided glados has been getting into MMOs. how do u feel about video game robot archnemeses/raid buddies/other.
no subject
i can't decide whether allies or rivals would be better though.
no subject
god me neither.
what about friendly rivals.....
no subject
legion ascribes all of their cultural misunderstandings to being a non-native english speaker, which is technically true. they play basically the same classes as before (snipers/necromancers named john smith).
no subject
beautiful. glados probably goes for the classes that are good at blowing things up.
they probably start getting preemptively banned from tournaments.

IF SO, Nivata... still thinks you suck. Why did you have to do that to her flesh golem, do you know how hard it is to reconstruct those after that kind of damage? Of course you don't. Who even let you develop sentience, anyway? They should be ashamed of themselves.
IF NOT, Nivata probably doesn't know you. Yet.

legion would totally have pulse-incinerated the shit out of that golem.
no subject
Also Nivata totally is in favor of the domination of golems by their creators. <3 Who let you develop sentience anyway, they should be ashamed of themselves, that's exactly how you get golem uprisings.
She may have exploded a different minion on you on purpose. Some of them are actually supposed to do that. ...Not the flesh golem though. You jerk.

legion, what are your thoughts on learning about human romance from someone whose notion of human romance is shitty soap operas and trashy novels
(in other news, eusine would definitely think legion is amazing. sentient space robot? this is like at least 80% as cool as unicorns. maybe 85% if he's feeling generous.)
